Ahead of the LACA Main Event, the hotel have asked us to pass on this request for prior notification of any special dietary requirements or allergen information from attendees:

 For those with allergies, intolerances, and special dietary requirements who may wish to be informed about the ingredients used, please ask a member of the team. All food is prepared in an area where allergens are present.

Hilton has a goal to reduce food waste, by providing accurate information you are helping our kitchens to reduce over production, take the guess work out of dietary requests and ultimately work together to help in our mission to reduce our overall food waste.

 A £10pp supplement will be charged for any additional vegetarian/vegan menus that have not been communicated about prior to the event, or that don't appear on the prior list of dietary requirements. 

Please let us know by the end of the day on Thursday 3 July, if this applies to you otherwise we can't guarantee your request can be catered for.
